Thomas Arvid

Artist of the Month, March 2019

Thomas Arvid is a still life oil painter with an exceptional expertise in rendering light, depth, and reflection in a super realistic manner.

Thomas combines his love for painting and wine with his compositions of wine and the rituals surrounding it.

With the use of lush colors, Thomas, in his compositions, tells a story of enjoyment and the good life.

Thomas Arvid's tip:

I have a couple of things I would pass on to artists at the beginning of their careers.

First thing, set up your studio where you can leave it up and then paint. Paint every day whether you are in the mood to paint or not. You can't wait for inspiration, that comes from long hours behind the easel.

Second, paint what you know and what you love. If your art is authentic, it will resonate with people. What makes art truly great is also what makes it unique and you can only find that inside of yourself.

Sergey Suer

Sergey Suer is a talented designer and illustrator who has been working professionally since 2013.

Sergey's works are characterized by a combination of realism and graphic interpretation.

In other words, diving into the painted world and the world of imagination while observing the rules of perspective, lighting, etc.

When creating new worlds, wonderful characters, buildings, machines and other magical creatures, art for Sergey is a playground without settings and restrictions.

Sergey Suer's tip:

In Sergey's experience, it is recommended to devote a period of intensive study to a particular topic. At the end of the period, it is possible to switch to a completely different subject and maintain the accumulated knowledge.
